What does La Vie est Belle L'Eau de Parfum Légère smell like?

Blackcurrant and pear open on a fruity freshness. In the heart, orange blossom absolute, jasmine sambac absolute and iris pallida concrete build a floral, powdery body. White musk and patchouli gather it into a sweet base.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Voters spread the four seasons almost evenly, with fall just ahead. It leans towards night out and evening wear, and also suits daily and business use. Most voters call it feminine. Lancôme La Vie est Belle L'Éveil and Lancôme La Vie est Belle L'Eau de Parfum have a close profile.
